My "Hallie" Moment

So last night I was talking on the phone to my mom, and we all know how kids get when you're trying to talk on the phone. Marley decided to go to the potty, so she took off her pants and sat on the potty, but nothing happened. It was almost time for her to go to bed, so I told her to just keep her pants off until I was done talking to nana, because we were going to get her pj's on in a minute. She was in the living room watching a movie, and I went in to check on her and noticed she had something in her mouth. I asked her what she was chewing on, and she spit out this big brown blob of something. I asked her again what it was and where she got it, and she pointed to the corner of the dining room, I went over to look and saw a big pile of poop, it looked just like the blob she had spit out, so I started freaking out! I grabbed her and took her to the bathroom and started scrubbing her teeth, my gag reflex was also going nuts. All the while yelling, "Did it taste good?" and "I can't believe you did that!" So I got her in bed and went to clean up the mess. When I got to the blob, I decided to take a closer look to make sure, but it was kind of hard and fiberous. Then I saw a half eaten brown taco-bell napkin on the floor under a chair. I was so relieved! I don't know if I would have ever been able to let her kiss me again if it had been poop! But I also felt really bad for yelling at her so I went and apologized to her and we read some stories and she went to bed.
